Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cutting tool, and in particular to a cutting tool having a helical superhard-material rake face.
  • PCD Polycrystalline diamond
  • CBN cubic boron nitride
  • CBN or polycrystalline cubic boron nitride is an artificial synthetic material second only to diamond in hardness and having good high-temperature stability (an extremely high temperature will be generated during machining of hardened ferrous metal and superalloy materials).
  • CBN cutters in different designs are used for continuously or intermittently cutting hardened ferrous metals, as well as for cutting and machining weld metals and composite metals.
  • the PCD cutter is made by welding a PCD material to a cutter body.
  • the PCD cutter is produced from the PCD material and a matrix material by sintering diamond particles with a metal-based binder under a high temperature and a high pressure.
  • a PCD cutter point can be cut by electrical discharge machining or laser, is welded to a hard alloy or steel matrix, and is then subjected to cutter sharpening to form the PCD cutter.
  • This kind of cutter is particularly effective for high-speed machining of non-ferrous metals (such as aluminum) and highly abrasive synthetic materials and plastic.
  • the PCD cutter is widely used for milling non-ferrous metals, composite materials, plastic, and super alloy extremely difficult to be machined.
  • a center edge (also referred to as backlash or chisel edge) is located at a rotating center of a cutter and plays an important role in cutting. Due to a small rotating radius of the center edge, a linear speed is low, and it is difficult to control front and rear angles, quality of the center edge is particularly important for the life and machining of cutters.
  • a helix angle is also crucial to the cutting performance of the cutter.
  • a large number of literatures show that the cutting performance of a cutter with a helix angle is better.
  • For a cutter with an edge part made of a superhard material how to obtain a superhard-material cutting edge with a helix angle and a superhard-material center edge part is a key direction of continuous exploration in the cutter manufacturing industry.
  • the superhard material is attached to both sides of the rotating center to make a patch cutter.
  • This kind of cutter adopts a tilted patching method similar to differential calculus, to divide an arc into several straight lines. Due to the characteristic of a small difference between an edge tilting angle and the helix angle within 15° with a short edge length (for example: the edge length does not exceed 10 mm), a cutting edge having an edge tilting angle less than or equal to 15° and similar to a helix-angle cutting edge can be obtained.
  • the problem of this technology is that the tilted patching method will continuously reduce the thickness of a cutter core as the edge tilting angle increases when the edge length is constant, or as the edge length increases when the edge tilting angle is constant, until the cutter completely loses its rigidity.
  • one tool groove needs to be equipped with a superhard-material patch forming an edge, so it is impossible to make a helix or edge tilting angle greater than 15°, and the superhard material cannot be used for the center edge of the cutter.
  • a helical material sintering method (Element Six, UK) and an overall welding and ablation method (Iwag, Switzerland) are used.
  • the helical sintering method is to fill a blank pre-machined with a helical groove with powder of an unsintered superhard material, and then the blank and the superhard powder are simultaneously sintered to form a helical superhard edge part blank.
  • the main disadvantage of this solution is that the shape of the cutter is limited by the shape of the sintered blank, and the helix angle parameter cannot be arbitrarily controlled.
  • the overall welding and ablation method is to weld an entire cylindrical material made of the superhard material to the first end of the cutter and perform subtractive machining on it to directly obtain the helical groove and the helical edge part.
  • the machining is generally performed by laser.
  • the main disadvantage of this solution is that a large number of a superhard material needs to be consumed, and thus the production cost is also high.
  • One objective of the present invention is to provide a green body mounted on a matrix to make a cutter.
  • a helix angle parameter can be arbitrarily controlled according to the design requirements of the cutter.
  • Another objective of the present invention is to provide a green body, thereby reducing the usage of a superhard material and reducing the manufacturing cost of a cutter.
  • Yet another objective of the present invention is to provide a green body mounted on a matrix to make a cutter.
  • a continuous cutting edge is machined on a same superhard material to facilitate cutting machining and improve the surface quality.
  • a further objective of the present invention is to provide a cutting tool.
  • the cutting tool can have a rake face greater than 15° and made of a helical superhard material, and is convenient for forming a continuous center cutting edge to facilitate implementation of cutting machining, and prolong the life of the cutter.
  • a fifth objective of the present invention is to provide a cutting tool having a continuous superhard-material center edge, and a superhard-material cutting edge having a helix angle greater than 15°, thus improving the machining accuracy and the machining efficiency, and prolonging the life of the cutter.
  • the superhard material is, for example, a composite material formed by metal ceramic, diamond (particularly artificial polycrystalline diamond) and CBN, or hard alloy and one or several of metal ceramic, diamond and CBN.
  • the cutting tool is a tool for cutting a material. Industrially, it is also referred to as a cutter, such as a generic term of a drill bit, a milling cutter, and a reamer for hole machining and molding machining.

  • the green body is platy, and has a thickness greater than 0.3 mm and less than or equal to 4 mm, a length greater than 4 mm and less than or equal to 20 mm, and a width greater than 4 mm and less than or equal to 20 mm.
  • the green body is platy, and has a thickness greater than 0.3 mm and less than or equal to 2 mm, a length greater than 4 mm and less than or equal to 16 mm, and a width less than or equal to 4 mm.
  • the green body After being fixed to the matrix, the green body is machined into an edge part for cutting, such as a main cutting edge and a center cutting edge located on the green body made of a same superhard material.
  • an edge part for cutting such as a main cutting edge and a center cutting edge located on the green body made of a same superhard material.
  • the green body further includes a third surface intersected with the first side surface and the second side surface such as a plane, a curved surface, or a folding surface.
  • the third surface is located at a first end in a feeding direction of the cutter, and made of the same superhard material.
  • a machine tool having a rotating shaft is used for cutting the superhard material to obtain the green body of the present invention.
  • the first helical surface and the second helical surface of the green body are generally parallel to each other.
  • the helical surface is obtained by plane torsion. That is, by cutting out at a same angle, the area of any section obtained is equal.

  • a platy green body made of a superhard material and including a first plate surface and a second plate surface, the first plate surface at least including a first helical surface, and the second plate surface at least including a second helical surface;

  • the green body and the slot body are assembled (by, for example, welding or bonding).
  • a center cutting edge close to the longitudinal axis and having a rake face and a flank face, and a main cutting edge having a rake face and a flank face are then machined and formed on the green body.
  • a main cutting edge is made of a continuous and intact superhard material, and has a helical rake face (such as greater than 15°).
  • a center cutting edge is made of the same intact superhard material and crosses a rotating center.
  • the cutter provided by the present invention has the beneficial effects that the main cutting edge formed by the continuous and intact superhard material is obtained; the helical rake face greater than 15° can be prepared, which is more favorable for cutting machining, such as significantly reducing a cutting force, improving chip removal, prolonging the life of the cutter, and improving the surface quality.

  • the cutter provided by the present invention has the beneficial effects that the machining accuracy and the machining efficiency are improved, and the intensity of the center is improved; the life during cutting machining is prolonged; and the overall cutting performance of the cutter is significantly improved.

  • the technical solution of the present invention has the beneficial effects that according to the cutter prepared, usage of the superhard material can be greatly reduced, and the manufacturing cost of the cutter is reduced.
